Ideas for a b'day gift for the guy I've just started dating?

A week ago I met this amazing guy and next weekend I will be staying at his for the weekend (he lives 3 hours away from my place). It happens to be his birthday as well that weekend (he is turning 28), implying that (1) I will be meeting all of his friends and family right away and (2) I should buy a gift. However, I have only seen him for one night (pretty tipsy) and a few hours the day after, so I only know some basic hobbies, such as cooking and playing sports. I want to give him something personal but that doesn't scream "I am claiming you and I am desperate" either.. Does anyone have any suggestions?
